Plan Check 172a- Larry Callahan August 9, 1985 Page Two the exterioi_4�alls, is at least 2000 sf greater than that. Therefore, the floor area within the extei•ior aialls is at least 74,000 sf. The allowable floor area of the buiding is exceeded. 3. The actual floor area increases even beyond that. The building entryway areas �ahich have canopies overhead should be included in the calcul tion for floor arez.

Special inspection on this project should be provided for pTacement of concrete (see comment 6-d), field welding, ductile moment-resisting space frames (see comment 5-a), high-strength bolting (see comment 10-i ) , and placement of structural fill (see comnents 2-c,d) . Section 306(a) b_ Special inspectors should be employed by the owner and should be cer- tified inspectors you approve. Section 305(c). They should perform continuous inspections during their phase of the work, not just peri- odic inspections. Section 306(c) c. Welders should be certified by third party quality control agencies, such as those licenced by WABO. Section 2714 &UBC Standard 27-6 d. Fabrication of the "Hambro" steel joists (see comment 6-a) should be done under quality control procedures inspected by Underwriters Lab- oratory--Evaluation Report AA523. e. Structural steel fabrication should be performed in a shop you approve. 5ection 306(f). See also comment 7(c). 2. Soils report and earthwork: a. The soils report for the project, prepared by Rittenhouse-"Leman & Associates �1J-4545, dated April 15, 1985, complies with the minimum requirements of Section 2905. Th� key recommendations of the report suci� as those discussed below shouid be shown on the plans and speci- fications, rather than a general note rcferring to the report. Section 302(c). Soils testing prior to constructiu�� mav be appropriate--see comments 2(g,h). b. Has a site grading plan been submitted for the project? The relation- ship between finish floor elevation and existing grades significantly affectsproper implementation of the soils report recommendations, as well as Che structural design. � .
